What's on your half-way through (Wednesday) menu?
Mernin' errybody, happy Wednesday!
QOTD - Ugh, I'm usually the one with weird comments. Yesterday I was watering one of the large peace lilies at work that was so sad and droopy and our engineering manager walked by (she's like SUPER intelligent, Ph.D. in engineering) and she was like, oh thank you for taking care of her! I told her "of course, I could hear her screaming for water, she was so wilted!" She stopped and looked at me, and she just said "You hear plants too?" And I do. So I say weird things but every now and then I find my people. I work for a government entity but it's a River Authority full of environmentalists and scientists so stuff like that really makes me happy! But yeah, I'm generally the weirdo that says off the wall ****
Breakfast - fasting so hot black coffee and water
Lunch - nothing planned, something veggie and out with hubs
Snack - blueberry/banana/oatmilk with chia seeds smoothie, strawberries and blueberries and pepitas on side
Dinner - make your own pizza night
I hope you all have a great day!

That is not only not weird but very sweet; both you and the engineering manager.
My plants could scream all day and I wouldn't hear them, hence no plants in this household.

Hi jen,
Thanks for getting the thread started in the mornings. I did that long ago and it gets to be stressful. I used to start work at 7:00 AM and get up around 4:00 AM. I really admire anyone who keeps up with starting the post. Love your memes.
I have not had any weird comments from people but also do not get around them very often anymore. Most of my contact is text. I can't take the stress of Facebook anymore. I am wondering what strange event in a person's life would lead them to observing someone's neck.

I know we get some weird angles on zoom but that one was just out of the blue. I am still on Facebook but I find outside of sharing pictures my interactions with it have dropped drastically.

Good morning, everybody!
Okay, let's start with these three:
It does not take three grown men to bury a cat. Have you ever seen roofers work? Six guys show up in the dark with a boom box and a cooler full of lunch. Ladders are out and guys are on the roof shoveling off old tiles bringing up new roofing paper and shingles and within two days the entire roof is replaced. These three are digging a hole that is six cubic feet. And even Dr. Fauci agrees that you don't need to wear a mask to outdoor cat burials.
Everybody loves Martha: Chanel model, roaster of Cornish game hens, baker of tortes, co-host of the Puppy Bowl and Snoop D to the O double G original gangster, domestic doyenne, convicted felon, master of biotech stock trading and holiday domestic bliss.
(Possibly Not Recent Photos)
But I'm not buying this story. If there is one thing that me and Amy know, its murder shows. And a long history of watching murder shows tells us that dogs know how to find people: Cadaver dogs locate long buried people, bloodhounds chase murderers through swamps, scent dogs find missing people just from sniffing there hair brushes and wandering around neighborhoods full of creepers.
So, when Martha claims that her four dogs mistook her cat for an intruder, I'm going to call BS. Apparently, she has received some sort of confession from the dogs in order to have ascertained not only their guilt, but their motives as well. Am I saying that Martha waterboarded these poor pups? Not exactly, but if they confessed, I am sure that they were not exactly given their Miranda rights.
How does she even think that this went down?
"Can you smell that Rover, I think it's a burglar?"
"No way, dude, that's the cat that we've been living with for six years"
"plus its only one foot tall and walks on four legs"
"Better safe than sorry guys - let's eat it"
I think that a much more realistic alternative is that years of putting up with the cat's aloof preening and snide comments the dogs saw their opportunity and went for it. One too many arching of the back. Figured that they would feed Martha some nonsense line about defending the homestead, and be back in Kibble by noon.
QOTD: Someone asked me how my vacation was after my dermatologist treatment two weeks ago. Had to explain that I hadn't left yet and my face was burnt because of the blue light.
Breakfast: Bagel and Salmon
Lunch: Sausage
Dinner: Hello Fresh
Have a great day, all!

Your writing is so amusing. I do wonder what really happened, I spent a lot of money last year on her cat litter that changes color to let you know that there is a problem with your cat's urine. My Gracie's urine turned the ltter blue and I took her to the vet. She had not heard the Pretty Litter advertisement yet and I know she thought I was nuts.
We ended up doing about $500 in tests and concluded that there is nothing wrong with her kidneys or bladder. She did not have a urinary tract infection, does not have kidney stones, and is not diabetic. I went back to regular litter, happy my cat is fine, but mad at myself for falling for the advertisement. I was paying about $25 for the amount of litter I can get at the store for less than $10.

In my best Keith Morrison voice - Some say she had it coming, some say it was an accident, or was it...??
